According to a Bowling Green State University study, out of the thousands of police shootings between 2005 and April 2017, 80 officers were charged with murder or manslaughter. Of those, five were convicted of murder.

Along with the murder charge Oliver faces for Edward's death, he's also charged with aggravated assault in a different incident.

Oliver was off-duty when a woman rear-ended his truck, and he's accused of pulling his gun on her. This was two months before he shot and killed Edwards. Oliver's trial dates are still pending.
